shell: kill process group on timeout/cancel (no orphans) + shell_bg job registry + kill_job/list_jobs

Root cause of the shell->shell_bg thrash: run() backgrounded POSIX commands
with a bare & and never captured the pid, so on timeout it returned an error
while the children kept running. Now: setsid (own process group), capture the
leader pid, SIGTERM+SIGKILL the whole group on timeout/cancel, and a message
telling the model it was killed + to use shell_bg. Plus shell_bg registers jobs
to /tmp/lmcp-bg-jobs.tsv and new kill_job/list_jobs let a runaway job be reaped
without a reboot.

+# lmcp Windows MSI build
+
+This directory contains the WiX manifest and packaging files for the
+Windows MSI build of lmcp.
+
+## Recommended: cross-build on Linux (one command)
+
+```sh
+./build-msi.sh /path/to/output/dir
+```
+
+Downloads Lua 5.4 Win64 binaries from LuaBinaries, cross-compiles
+LuaSocket via `mingw-w64`, stages `pkg/lua/`, and runs `wixl` to
+produce `lmcp-<version>.msi`. No Windows VM required.
+
+Prereqs on a Debian/Ubuntu builder:
+```sh
+sudo apt install wixl unzip gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64 \
+                 binutils-mingw-w64-x86-64 mingw-w64-x86-64-dev curl
+```
+
+Version comes from `lmcp.wxs` `Version="…"`. Bump that before
+building a release.
+
+## Alternative: build on Windows via WiX toolset
+
+```cmd
+sync.sh                                  REM see "tracked vs. generated"
+REM ensure pkg/lua/ has the runtime — see below
+candle.exe lmcp.wxs
+light.exe lmcp.wixobj -o lmcp-1.x.y.msi
+```
+
+## What's tracked vs. generated
+
+- **Tracked** (edit in git):
+  - `lmcp.wxs` — WiX MSI manifest
+  - `sync.sh` — copies root .lua sources → `pkg/`
+  - `README.md` — this file
+  - `pkg/install_service.bat` — Windows service installer
+  - `pkg/start.bat` — manual launcher
+
+- **Generated / external** (gitignored):
+  - `pkg/lmcp.lua`, `pkg/server.lua`, `pkg/json.lua` — produced by
+    `sync.sh`. Never edit directly; edit the root files and re-sync.
+  - `pkg/lua/` — the Lua + LuaSocket runtime drop-in. Download
+    separately and place here. Suggested source: the lua-binaries
+    project (https://github.com/rjpcomputing/luaforwindows) or a
+    similar pre-built bundle. The MSI expects `pkg/lua/lua.exe`,
+    `pkg/lua/lua54.dll`, and the `pkg/lua/socket/` + `pkg/lua/mime/`
+    subdirectories per the manifest.
+
+## Issue history
+
+Issue #18 (closed in v1.1.0) introduced this workflow after the
+`pkg/` lua sources had silently drifted ~6 months out of date,
+missing every feature added since April 2026.
